One of the tenets of the Erin Holt Health practice is you can’t skip the basics. Eating a variety of whole foods is a huge piece of this, and home cooking is one of the best ways to achieve a whole foods diet. However, a lot of folks feel overwhelmed when it comes to the kitchen, and many don’t know where to start. Today Erin sits down with Rachel Mistry, MS, RDN, to unpack the barriers to entry when it comes to navigating the kitchen. They give practical advice for one pot dishes, pantry staples, maximizing time, overcoming uncertainty, and enlisting help. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned pro, you’ll want to tune in to get some great ideas!
Rachel Mistry is a registered dietitian specializing in functional medicine. As a soon-to-be grad of Erin’s Funk’tional Nutrition Academy Practitioner Certification, Rachel is well-aligned with the Erin Holt Health philosophy. With her years of clinical experience working in a prominent functional medicine clinic, we are honored and excited to have her on the team.
To Rachel, being healthy is more than just what you eat or how much you exercise. It’s about taking care of yourself, nourishing your body, and having fun while doing it! Rachel’s goal is to show people that building a balanced lifestyle while addressing underlying issues is the first step in disease prevention and management.
